And now an Iowa man who has spent fourteen years upon the problem claims that he has made an augur that will bore a square hole. His invention IS simply an oscilating head with chisel edges and projecting lips, which cut out the corners in advance of the chisel. The rest of the machine IS an almost exact counterpart of the old style boring machine. It will cut 2x4 mortise in from four to five minutes with perfect accuracy, that carpenter cannot complete i'll less than half an hour.

has been done in California, and the fame attained in the fruit and wine markets of the world by the products of her "desert lands" has spread too widely to need more than mention here. Well, the soil and climatic conditions which exist there have been ex- actly reproduced III the valley of the Gila. What has been done there can be done-in fact is being done here; and while in California the poor mans opportunity has forever passed, and her worth less" lands of a decade ago now represent a value of hundreds of dollars per acre, in Arizona, and in Graham county especially, its price to the settler is neither more nor less than the fees required by the land office for entering it.
 We hear a great deal of talk nowadays about manifest des- tiny" We'll, the manifest des- tiny" of the northern portion of Graham, it seems to the writer, will be to furnish water-powcr to run the immense fruit canneries, bottling works, grist mills, etc, which will be erected there to handle the fruit, wine and grain which will be produced on the sun-kissed lands to the south. Such a prophecy as this fifteen or perhaps ten years ago would to most people have sounded the very extravaganza of boastful folly, and even now, perhaps, sounds rather fanciful; but only moments serious thought is re- qulred to convince any man ac- quainted with the subject that its fultillment will be neither more nor less than the natural conse- quence of the advantages with winch nature has blessed this sec tion, coupled with a proper ex- hibition of energy cn the part of its people.

A cowboy appeared Ut a rail road station in Nevada and stated that he desired to ship to the parents East the body of a com rade who had been killed by a grizzly bear. In shipping the box the agent noticed that it was quite heavy and not of the usual oblong shape. In a few days came telegram: ''Some mistake; Bills body not arrived. Box con- tained grizzly Dear." The cow boy, who was still at the station on a protracted ''blow in," wired back: No mistake. Bill inside the bear"

WONDERFUL CLOCK,
The Waterbury Clock that is to SurpaSs the Strasburg Clock.

The Waterbury Watch com
 pany has almost completed it's
 wonderful clock, which, in its
 mechanism, is said to sutpass the
 famous clock of Strasbhrg. It
 will be completed by early au-
 tumn, and will then be on exhibl.
 tion in several of the leading cities
 of the United States. No one has
 yet seen it but the builders. The
 clock is IS feet hlgh; with t bass
 of ' feet; the width is s feet; and
 it is G feet deep. Nearly all the
 choice and expensive varieties of
 wood enter into its constructions
 also a numberless variety of met;
 als. The cabinet work througlf-
 out is marvel of beauty. Five
 long years have been consumed
 in it's construction; sometimes
 four, at others five, men have been
 engaged in the work. Time is iti-
 dicated in the usual mantfer by
 hours, minutes and seconds, in addition half-seconds, eights, six teenths and thirty-seconds. The day of the year, month and week may also be taken from the dial. The number of wheels. parts; pinions, springs and other parts of the mechanism is legion, all of which contribute to most wonder ful and amusing exhibitions of historical events. The several phases of the moon are indicated. The entire system of the planets and solar systems are shown in perfect form and in all the Varied revolutions. A perfect system of astronomy may be studied from the ingenious machinery. Many hundred figures represent distiif- guished clergymen, lawyers, phy- sicians. orators, poets, musicians, sculptors, artists and actors; also distinguished men of all nations. These figures are said to be carved in wood from correct Ilkenesses; and are most complete representa- tions. The singers of the Declara tion of Independence assembled as represented in history, the Cabinet of Lincoln when the emancipation proclamation was signed, the surrender of Lee at several scenes at the at Philadelphia in 1876, and noted scenes and his torical events as represented in the Bible have prominent place. Shakespearean plays are set out with characters true to the repre- sentations of the author and the modern setting at the theaters, with dress and costume to cor Figures and fashions of lress, both ancient and modern, lown to the latest period, are smong the curiosities. A multi 'ude of amusing scenes will fill put the measure of this wonder ,ul clock. It is safe to say it will 'urpass any other mechanical stru- ,ure of the kind ever produced.- New York Journal:

An Ogdehsburg newspaper says that some of the citizens of the Fourth ward of that town have for some time been annoyed by their COWS coming home at night without the usual amount of milk. They watched their COWS in hopes of discovering the offender, and they were successfuls for they saw a strange dog approach one of the COWS and rub up against her legs. The COW put her foot back, when the dog sat upon his launches and sucked her dry. He was as fat as seal from the milk he had been taking.

She used to bathe her feet Tn cologne after a walk and to change her stockings with every change of costume. Her stock lngs cost about $6 pair, and she wore out five dozen pairs a year. As consequence her feet were as pink and white as an infants. She wore $40 corset wlth every dress, and had man servant to lace her corset up.

Another Railroad Horror.

Another railway horror occurred
on the Chicago and Atlantic railway
Monday night, sixty miles east Of Chi
cago, near Kouts Station. Seventeen
passengers we're killed and burned in
the wreck, and from twenty-five to
thirty we're more or less injured. A
heavy fresh meat train telescoped the
evening accommodation, the New
York express, which leaves Chicago at
7:45 p. m. The accommodation, with
one baggage car, two coaches and one
sleeper, had stopped at the water tank
for water about one mile west Of
Kouts, and the freight train following
crashed into the. sleeper, telescoping
and burning the entire passenger train
as stated.
